"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

has been described by Politico as the AI boom's most "acerbic gadfly"

The AI boom is about as real as the Metaverse boom.

I've seen researchers and academics prefer 'AI spring' to contrast with the AI winter of the last few decades to highlight the change in research and development spending, without the 'successful market' implications of the word 'boom'. Can't really call it a 'boom' when you're losing billions a day.

I expect a mix of dotcom boom and Enron.
